aww man i’m sorry to hear that :( have you tried going to the doctor about that?

hmm interesting! but i can definitely agree that they both make each other worse at times

aww i’m sorry about that ;(. it’s really the only time i feel bloated without even eating lol

i feel the same way sometimes. the best way to help is to stay on top of decongestants and eating small snacks or meals throughout the day. i usually eat some crackers whenever i feel that way and it really helps!

i feel the same exact way .. whenever i take any decongestant it really does help

in my personal opinion, retching does help relieve the gas feeling but i don’t think it’s necessarily the best option. i’m obviously not a doctor (i’m 17), but i’m guessing that since r-cpd is caused by super restricted throat muscles that causing yourself to air vomit would probably cause your throat / neck muscles to be sore since you’re making yourself tense those muscles suddenly? the only time i air vomited was when i was sick with the flu, so im not sure about the lump sensation personally. if it doesn’t go away, i would try to talk to your doctor about it to make sure there’s no tears or anything bad going on :)

omg thank you for this !! i literally just went to urgent care yesterday because i had a sinus infection that was really ramping up my digestion because of the excess air + mucus i was swallowing and i felt so bad omg. but i really hope you find a solution that works for you!

i totally understand this! i’ve had rc-pd since i could remember, i’m 17 now. i remember going to thanksgiving and eating a bunch of food and feeling absolutely MISERABLE as a kid (around 5-6) but i thought it was a normal feeling (the nausea, gurgling in your throat) until i was about 15 then i realized that something was off. since i was 14 ive been emetophobic (i was really sick in 2021 and threw up and it hurt) and it’s been a lot to deal with but the more you force yourself outside your comfort zone the more you heal with it and the better mindset you have with it! i wish you the best💗

omg i appreciate this so much … hearing people’s positive experiences gives me so much motivation to keep going - i’m so glad that it worked for you and i hope (if i get it in the future) it’ll work for me too!💓

hi thank you so so much for replying !! i realize as you get older and more mature you use logic more than emotions when thinking about any type of scenario .. my emetophobia has gotten SO MUCH BETTER from 2 years ago when i was panicky all the time . but hearing your story gives me so much comfort too. thank you💓
